Sweet, spicy, rich, and meaty, bacon jam is a versatile condiment for any meal. Spread on toast, mixed into pasta, or thinned and drizzled on rice, bacon jam can add multilayered flavor to a variety of dishes. We start the bacon on the stovetop to render the fat before transferring it to the Suvie with vinegar, sugar, and red pepper flakes.
Bacon Jam
Ingredients
- 1 lb bacon, roughly chopped
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
Directions
1) Transfer bacon and onions to a large skillet. Heat over medium high and cook bacon until rendered and crisp, about 10 minutes, stirring often. Pour off and discard oil and transfer bacon and onion to a Suvie pan.
2) Stir cider vinegar, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes into the bacon mixture. Insert pan into your Suvie, input settings, and cook now or schedule.

3) After the cook, remove pan from Suvie and transfer bacon to a food processor and puree for 30 seconds until cohesive, but still slightly chunky.
